Breaking Up The Backyard

I have a lot to do on this little weeks sabbatical. The lawn has grown back with a vengeance and we'll see if the weedwacker is up to taking on the whole yard. But the biggest change is the stuff that is no longer there, or maybe there but destroyed.

Yes.

We got rid of a few things, and against our neighbors suggestions we sold our swingset/jungle-gym/eyesore to the new couple down the street.

They left a nice tire trail in case we want it back and have to find them.

And when they asked we jumped at a decent price to get the hot tub off the property as well.

Thought we might regret this but we didn't use it once this past year, and if we really want one now we can go pick out a nice new one, someday.

But how's that for photos of nothing... anti-photos.

And on top of all that the pool imploded.

Laura came home form work one night and the yard was flooded. So in one week we managed to rid ourselves of all these things we weren't really sure we wanted and now have a clean slate to work with when it comes time for redesigning the backyard and back porch, whenever that time may be.
